About Jen

Hey friends!

I usually describe myself as a community builder by trade, a social worker at heart, and artist by lifestyle. Jen Armitage Designs reflects the intersection of all of these. I have taken it one step further and am in the process of getting my masters in counseling in psychology, and am a certified Youth Mental Health First Aid Trainer.

My background: I have a Bachelor’s degree in Organizational Leadership, and I’ve spent my career working in program management and leadership development for nonprofits. In these positions, I have created resources and programs to equip communities, invested in the growth of clients and volunteers, and done a fair amount of community outreach. 

The ultimate thing I have loved in all these roles over time is having the opportunities to create things that help people grow and thrive. 

My thirties have brought a season of artistry in my life. I have found my own style in painting and digital art that is a little messy and abstract, but has a lot of bright colors and usually involves black-sharpie-looking doodles somewhere on it. As I’ve grown in my art, I’ve grown in myself, and it’s become a part of how I live. I bring colored markers to professional business meetings, often have paint or Sharpie ink on my arms and clothes, and have integrated my need for processing in creative ways into many elements of my life. Now, it has become my business. 

I have combined my work background and creative sensibilities into Jen Armitage Designs. I make resources for emotional, spiritual, and character growth with a bit of creative flair. 

So have a look around! Check out my downloadable templates and coloring pages for personal growth or just for fun, suitable for individuals, therapy sessions, and groups. Head on over to my consulting page to see how I can facilitate growth through resources for your event, ministry, or nonprofit.
